I downloaded this when you posted it over on Reddit, it's a really polished alternative to the other streaming clients. While I don't have an Xbox myself, it's really impressive that you've integrated the input redirection, so anyone with an Xbox One and a New 3DS can play their games right there on the Xbone. It's as if they've got some kind of slightly-reduced-framerate 3DS Virtual Console, now.

The only things it's missing for me are a couple of minor cosmetic options:
  • a full screen mode (on the Windows build, in my case); currently it doesn't seem to be possible to display without the title bar at the top and the start bar at the bottom. I think Windows apps can do this, right? Also, the settings bar at the bottom could be hidden unless the mouse/touch/etc. summons it so that the screen is completely empty but for the 3DS display.
  • more flexible screen layouts, e.g. side-by-side, individual screen scales, etc.
But it's an impressive achievement, getting 3DS games onto a modern TV-based console. Great work.

Look forward to trying this out with the built in Input Redirection, how is the Xbox Controller mapped? is it like A (X1) = A (3DS) or is it A (X1) = B (3DS) also is the right stick setup to be the D-Pad? since we have no C-Stick support its nice for that to be D-Pad so can still use camera functions in games that assign to D-Pad.

You can hide the settings within the application by right-clicking or pressing 'RT' on the gamepad. It is possible to implement full screen using this API. In fact, if someone wants to submit a PR for it (it's super easy to do), I will happily incorporate it.

*edit I just added FullScreen in latest commit, submitting update to store now
See: https://github.com/toolboc/UWPStreamer/commit/2e4755ed3eff76f002c1c2c43f5bdbb82405db30

Side-by-Side and individual screen display mode are supported by selecting 'Display' in the menu, in addition 'Rotation' allows to change screen orientation. Each time it is selected the screens rotate 90 degrees. Scaling would also be pretty easy to set up as it is a property of the screen elements in the UI code. Again, PR's happily accepted.

I feel like it's just me, but this is far less choppier than when I was using kit kat. I always had problems with it white screening randomly, so this was a good alternative!

Ah, thanks, that is nice.

This doesn't seem to be working as intended for me, then. When I hit Display, it cycles through three settings: top-and-bottom (vertical), top only, and bottom only. No amount of hitting display results in a left-right, side-by-side, horizontal layout.

does this have universal controller support, or only xbox? I only have a gamecube controller and i'd like to use it with this.

Click 'Rotate'

Ahhhh, side-by-side has not been implemented. Would consider if a PR is submitted or if there is enough support for this.

This is awesome. It works great on the Xbox One except A gets confused with the input for settings. Quality is really good.

Per the instructions in the original post, press RT on the controller to disable the settings menu.

Consider that programmatically this is a chicken /egg problem. The controls need to be able to select the menu while also providing input to the game. To solve this, I allowed the user to control whether the menu is enabled with the RT trigger or mouse right-click. This also allows for a bit more screen real-estate.

Open to suggestions for improvement here.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice

    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah

    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
